Guidance needs to be provided to implementers that the Procedure.status element is a modifier and that the presence of a procedure identified in the Procedure.code element also requires the implementer to look at the Procedure.status and Procedure.statusReason elements for the full context. |
Guidance will be provided to inform implementers that the FHIR standard must be followed and that these items must be supported. Guidance will be issued to state that implementers must not just look at the Procedure.code element in isolation but also look at the Procedure.status and Procedure.statusReason elements as they may modify the context. |
